4/23 Thursday - #stayhome Bingo

Z presses are on the menu today. You can modify them by sitting on a box rather than the floor. Mercedes and Ava are crushing our #stayhome Bingo game. How is your game coming along?
​Today's #stayhome Bingo highlights are to do a workout with someone from our family (or your #stayhome crew) and do a workout inside your home. 
I have been loving my Check-ins with all of you. It is remarkable to learn that we ALL are sharing the same struggles. One of the most common struggles is working out alone. We are all missing our TSCF tribe something fierce right now. While not all of us have family members who are CrossFitters, we can certainly have some fun together. Today's workout is an easy one to do with your family. 
Non CrossFitters often ask me what makes CrossFit so special. Sure the workouts are demanding, intense and effective. Yet, that is not what makes is special to ME. Most of you know that I am a Marine. I shipped off to bootcamp when I was 17 and spent the next 5 years learning about teamwork, integrity, grit and trust.
One of the hardest things we Marines must learn when we transition into civilian life is how to trust people. For us, trusting someone means you want them in your foxhole when things go south. It's hard to navigate that when you're no longer in the military. CrossFit has helped with learn how to trust people. When I see someone next to me who is working just as hard as I am. Someone who is willing to embrace the suck. Someone who is willing to eek out that last rep with 3 seconds to go. That is someone I can trust. I want that person with me in my foxhole. Doing CrossFit with James, and all the rest of you at the gym, has helped me trust people again. 
Doing a workout with your family will show you just how fantastic they are. Doing something hard with your family takes your relationship to a new level. You will see their determination and grit. You will see them dig deep to finish. There are not a lot of opportunities in our daily lives to see just what someone is made of when the rubber meets the road. Doing CrossFit together can bring you closer. 
Share with us your experiences of doing CrossFit with your family or #stayhome crew.
